Flanders Scientific is setting a new standard in affordable, native HD, professional video monitoring solutions with the introduction of two new monitors: the 21.5" LM-2140W and the 23"LM-2340W. Both units feature native 1920x1080 resolution IPS LCD panels with ultra-efficient LED backlights and standard 3G/HD/SD-SDI as well as Component, Composite, and DVI-I Inputs for support of virtually any video format including NTSC/PAL, 4:4:4 signals, 2K, and 1080p50/60 sources. Additionally, these monitors feature the same advanced video processing hardware found on our top of the line monitors ensuring that practically any broadcast standard signal, even interlaced or PsF formats, will be displayed accurately. And here is the best part, the LM-2140Wcosts just $2,495 and the LM-2340W costs just $2,995. That's right, native 1920x1080 resolution, 3Gbps SDI, high quality video processing, efficient LED backlighting, and a truly advanced feature set all for under $3,000!

These monitors come with many standard broadcast monitor features like Blue Only, MonoChrome, Markers, Safety Areas, & Tally Lights and like all FSI monitors also come standard with advanced features like our 12 Mode Scopes, Focus Assist, Time Code Display, Freeze Frame Picture and Picture, Audio Disembedding, and Audio Level Meter features.

The LM-2140W and LM-2340W were purpose built as full-featured low cost monitoring solutions for environments that do not require the Grade 1 performance and color fidelity of FSI's flagship 10 bit 24" reference monitor, the LM-2461W. While not equipped with the advanced Color Fidelity Engine found on the LM-2461W these units are still fully calibrated and will offer sufficient color accuracy for general color judgment in a wide array of less critical professional monitoring applications. For advanced color grading environments or other very color-critical workflows FSI highly recommends our top of the line LM-2461W reference grade monitor, but for virtually every other general video monitoring application the LM-2140W and the slightly larger LM-2340W are an ideal choice at an unbeatable price.

The LM-2140W and LM-2340W are also incredibly capable field monitoring options thanks to their durable yet lightweight aluminum frames and ultra-efficient LED backlights. At just 9lbs (LM-2140W) or 10lbs (LM-2340W) these units are not only lighter than most comparably sized professional broadcast monitors, but even weigh several pounds less than the majority of 17" broadcast monitors on the market. Additionally at just 28 Watts (LM-2140W) or 30 Watts (LM-2340W) power consumption these units are some of the most efficient full-featured native 1920x1080 resolution broadcast monitors at any size.

At just $2,795 the LM-0950W is already an affordable monitoring solution for a unit with standard 3Gbps SDI inputs, 12 scope modes that work across all inputs, audio disembedding, and audio level meters. However, if you pre-order an LM-0950W by August 19th you will get a special introductory price of just $2,195. That is a savings of $600 on an already well priced 3Gbps SDI monitor! Units will begin shipping at the end of this month on a first come first served basis so get your orders in soon to take advantage of this introductory offer.

Flanders Scientific, Inc. is pleased to announce the official launch of the new LM-1760WF Field Unit. This lightweight 17" Monitor is a modified version of the LM-1760W designed specifically for field use. The standard LM-1760W is a 24VDC unit, but the LM-1760WF supports 12VDC directly without the need for an external 12V to 24V DC adapter making it the ideal choice for applications requiring efficient battery powered monitoring. The unit is also equipped with a standard AC power connection (100~240VAC) for hassle free use on AC power when available.

In addition to 12VDC power connectivity the LM-1760WF also comes packaged for field use with the following items at no additional charge:

• Carrying Bag with Integrated Hood (CBH17): Can be used in both a desktop or light stand configuration for maximum versatility on set. Moreover, the combined weight of the monitor and carrying bag is only 17.5lbs...that is about the same weight as many 17" production monitors by themselves. Made of durable cordura and ballistic nylon the interior of the bag helps protect the monitor with foam padding and a single piece honeycomb frame. The built in 4 sided hood assists in providing shade for viewing and the adjustable back leg can be adjusted for optimal tilt or lifted to allow the monitor to be mounted on a light stand while leaving the bag attached for protection and shade.  
• 2 x Clear Protective Covers (CPC17): These clear protective panel covers can be attached to the front of the monitor via simple hook and loop fastener strips. These covers help protect the LCD panel from objects that may otherwise cause damage or bruising to the LCD panel. The clear protective covers are made of high quality optical grade acrylic that is scratch resistant and two panel covers are provided so you always have a spare panel cover ready in case one becomes damaged.   
• VESA to Light Stand Adapter: This durable VESA to 5/8" spigot light stand adapter provides for quick and easy mounting on a light stand. The VESA adapter is lightweight but extremely strong and features two pivot points for maximum adjustability. Best of all this adapter can be left attached even when not in use as it folds inside of the carrying bag, which means no tools are required to quickly transition from transport, to desktop, to light stand configurations.    

You get the monitor and all of the above accessories for just $2,795 

A truly incredible value for a versatile field monitor that comes with all of the advanced scope modes and ancillary features you expect from an FSI monitor. Click HERE to learn more.

The 24" LM-2461W continues to be widely adopted at post facilities around the world, but an increasing number of operators are finding that the LM-2461W is also an ideal on set / field use monitor. At just 15.8lbs (without stand, 19.8lbs with stand), 50 Watts Power Consumption (@120cd/m2), and featuring a durable diecast aluminum frame the LM-2461W is one of the lightest full featured color critical 24" monitor solutions available on the market.  

The LM-2461W comes equipped with both AC and 24VDC power connections, but now FSI is also offering two battery plate options for the LM-2461W. Customers purchasing an LM-2461W will be able to order an optional AB or V-Mount battery plate, which will be installed directly onto the chassis. Additionally, when ordered with one of these battery plates your LM-2461W will be converted from a 24VDC to a 12VDC unit so no external voltage adapters are required to power your monitor from standard 12V (11~14.4V) batteries.  

10amp rated batteries are recommended for applications requiring high luminance output (170~350cd/m2) from the monitor, but even standard 6amp rated batteries are more than sufficient for operating the monitor at default settings. In its default configuration the LM-2461W only draws around 50Watts of power, easily making this 24" monitor as efficient as many 17" production monitors on the market. 

All new FSI Monitors will now ship with firmware version 9.41-1710 or later, which includes the following New Features and Updates: 

• 3Gbps Level B Overlay Viewing Mode: At NAB 2011 FSI added several Level B 3Gbps Viewing Modes in addition to the Level A 3Gbps SDI support that has always been included on FSI monitors equipped with 3Gbps SDI inputs. These Level B Viewing modes were designed primarily for viewing two distinct 1.5Gbps 4:2:2 signals in various configurations. However, while many professional 3Gbps SDI I/O cards output 4:4:4 RGB or YCbCr signals using Level A 3Gbps SDI some I/O cards exclusively employ Level B 3Gbps image format mapping for 4:4:4 RGB and 4:4:4 YCbCr signals. To accommodate signals from such 3Gbps SDI output cards FSI has added an Overlay Viewing Mode to the Level B 3Gbps monitoring options. This toggle can be activated from the System Menu/3G Level B selection and is entitled OVERLAY. As with Level A 3Gbps SDI it may be necessary to manually select the SDI Format (RGB or YCbCr) from the video menu if payload ID is not present or detected.
• 3Gbps Level A Bug Fix: A bug only present in firmware version 9.40-1697 that could possibly prevent some Level A 3Gbps SDI signals from displaying properly has been resolved in this firmware release.
• New Safety Broadcast Feature: The new Safety Broadcast feature activates a special monitoring mode designed primarily for Control Rooms and QC stations. With Safety Broadcast on you can simultaneously display two audio level meters, an Enhanced Source ID display (large overlay, remotely or manually set), Enhanced Alarm Window Display (large window, red background), and enhanced timecode display (large timecode overlay window).  Please see the updated user manual for more information on this new Safety Broadcast feature.  
• Still Frame Feature Update: The Still Frame feature has been updated to support high resolution progressive scan signals in addition to previously supported interlaced and lower resolution sources. 
• IRE Alarm Trigger Level: In response to the valued feedback of FSI monitor owners the IRE Trigger Level on the Alarm menu is now shown in an IRE instead of digital level scale.  

As usual these updates are now also available for free to LM-0750W, LM-1760W, LM-2450W, LM-2460W, and LM-2461W owners. Additional updates, features, and bug fixes have also been added in this firmware release. For complete details on these changes see the firmware release notes after logging into the firmware update site http://www.flandersscientific.com/index/Firmware_Updates . If you have forgotten your login information simply reregister your monitor. After registration you will be redirected to a page with your login information (make sure pop-up, redirect blockers are disabled).  

All new FSI Monitors will now ship with firmware version 9.40-1697 or later, which includes the following exciting new features since the last major firmware release (9.38):

• DSLR Zoom Function: Allows for full screen scaling of both 1080 and 480 resolution DSLR preview/recording mode video outputs. Best of all once this function is turned on it remains on while switching between 480 and 1080 output modes so that both SD and HD modes are automatically scaled full screen without the need for additional actions by the operator. DSLR Zoom also works in conjunction with other functions like Scopes and Markers allowing for truly versatile operation in conjunction with today's most popular DSLR cameras.

• Onscreen Alarms: A new menu titled Alarms has been added. This new Alarm menu allows operators to specify predefined alarm conditions that will trigger an onscreen alarm dialog box. Selectable alarm triggers include exceeding user defined IRE threshold, exceeding RGB threshold, Blue Field, Black Field, Loss of Signal, and Audio Mute. The advantage of the onscreen alarm system is that the small alarm dialog box only appears when an alarm condition is met, which makes it much less obtrusive than larger scope window overlays. Please see the updated user manual for important information regarding limitations of the onscreen alarm system.

• Level B 3Gbps SDI Monitoring Options: Monitors equipped with 3Gbps SDI Inputs can now monitor SMPTE 425M-Level B signals in addition to SMPTE 425M-Level A signals, allowing for exciting new capabilities beyond just monitoring 1080p50/60 or 4:4:4 signals over 3Gbps SDI. In particular this new functionality allows for selection of Link A full screen, Link B full screen, Picture in Picture Modes, Vertical Split, and Horizontal Split viewing. Learn more about all 3Gbps SDI monitoring modes at: http://www.flandersscientific.com/index/3Gbps_SDI 
• Level B Variable Wipe: This function can be combined with 3Gbps SDI Level B Monitoring to allow Horizontal and Vertical Split screen modes in Level B 3Gbps SDI to be adjusted with a user defined split screen positioning.
• Still Frame: The ability to temporarily freeze a single frame of video for review has been added with the new Still Frame function.
• New Source ID/Tally Window on Scopes and VU Meters Menu: Window 1 or Window 2 of the Scopes and VU Meters function can now be filled with a dedicated Source ID/Tally Window that will show manually set Source ID, Remotely Programmed UMD, and current Tally Light condition (Red/Green/Amber). 

This new firmware version also features the following updates to existing features:

• NO DATA Indication on Audio Level Meters: The previous MUTE indication has been removed and a less ambiguous NO DATA indication has been added to identify Audio Channels (Groups) that are NOT being embedded into the SDI signal. Mute audio channels will now simply be shown with no volume indication, but will not indicate NO DATA unless the audio channel is actually not being embedded into the SDI signal.
• -10 dBFS Permitted Max Level: By user request we have added -10 dBFS as a selectable Max Permitted Level setting for the Audio Level Meters.
• LUM Coloring Feature Update: The LUM Coloring exposure check feature has been updated to allow for more flexibility. In addition to being able to set a min and max limit users will now have the ability to define a middle area that will not be color coded, but rather shown in monochrome (greyscale). This allows operators to set precisely defined upper and lower color coded regions to more easily identify over and under exposed areas in a shot.
• Graticules (Custom Marker) Span Width/Height Feature Added: In addition to showing the precise pixel position of the custom markers the Graticules function will now also provide a readout of the width and height of the area the operator has defined with the adjustable marker lines. This provides a quick and intuitive way of knowing the precise dimensions of the box that has been created with the Graticules feature.
• Ability to Monitor just Audio Channels 1 & 2 with Onscreen Audio Level Meters: In addition to being able to monitor 8 or 16 channels of audio operators will now be able to monitor just audio channels 1 and 2 using the horizontal audio level meters to ensure minimal overlap with active video. This is an especially useful feature on 7" and 17" FSI monitors. 

As usual these updates are now also available for free to LM-0750W, LM-1760W, LM-2450W, LM-2460W, and LM-2461W owners. Additional updates, features, and bug fixes have also been added in this firmware release. For complete details on these changes see the firmware release notes after logging into the firmware update site http://www.flandersscientific.com/index/Firmware_Updates .

1. FSI will attempt to find the best balance between performance and price in any new product development. FSI's new products aim at providing professionals with the tools needed to get the job done adequately and with confidence, but at a reasonable price. FSI has no interest in developing ultra-expensive products that all but a few facilities can possibly afford, especially given the track record of the rapid move towards obsolescence of even these very expensive technologies. 
2. Whenever possible within the constraints of hardware compatibility and reasonable upgrade pricing FSI will offer upgrade options to existing customers. This is evident foremost in our continual stream of new features via simple and free firmware upgrades, but also in our affordable hardware upgrade options whenever such upgrade-ability is technically feasible at a fair price.

1. Addition of 3Gbps SDI Inputs as standard equipment. This new hardware configuration adds the ability to monitor both Level A and Level B 3Gbps SDI video signals (SMPTE 425M-AB).
2. Addition of DCI-P3 Color Space Support.
3. Remote Control Alarm Monitoring Support.
4. All LM-2461W feature updated LUTs for all color spaces based on measurement data from a new and more accurate reference spectroradiometer.

In most other respects the LM-2460W and LM-2461W are quite similar. Thanks to this similarity in other design aspects two upgrade paths will be available for LM-2460W owners that would like to take advantage of some or all of the LM-2461W enhancements. Both upgrade paths require that the LM-2460W be returned to FSI's service facility in Suwanee, GA.

1. The first upgrade path will add the DCI-P3 Color Space, update the necessary hex file for remote control alarm monitoring, load the updated LUTs based on the newer reference spectroradiometer, and include full recalibration of the monitor. This service is provided at no cost, but freight charges to/from Suwanee, GA are the customer's responsibility. After this update the monitor model on the system status menu will read LM-2461W and future firmware updates will use the LM-2461W firmware files.
2. The second upgrade path includes everything from the first upgrade path as well as the addition of a 3Gbps SDI Input board. This will functionally turn the LM-2460W into an LM-2461W and allow for support of 3Gbps SDI Level A and Level B (SMPTE 425M-AB). This upgrade will cost $995 (3Gbps SDI was originally a $1,995 option on the LM-2460W) in addition to all applicable freight charges to/from FSI's service facility in Suwanee, GA. After this update the monitor model on the system status menu will read LM-2461W-3G and future firmware updates will use the LM-2461W firmware files. Customers that already own an LM-2460W with 3Gbps SDI option installed do not need to pay for this upgrade and will only be responsible for freight to/from FSI to take advantage of these new enhancements. To learn more about 3Gbps SDI visit: http://www.flandersscientific.com/index/3Gbps_SDI

Customers interested in either upgrade path must first contact Flanders Scientific at Support@FlandersScientific.com or +1.678.835.4934 to request an RMA and schedule your update. Please indicate whether you are interested in upgrade path 1 or upgrade path 2 when requesting your RMA form. Updates will be scheduled to allow for 24 hour turnaround of all work to minimize your downtime. Only the LM-2460W is eligible for this optional upgrade.

• 3Gbps SDI Inputs standard
  • What was a $1,995 option on the LM-2460W is now included at no additional cost on the LM-2461W. 3Gbps/HD/SD-SDI, Component, Composite, and DVI-I Inputs are all provided as standard equipment. 
• DCI P3 Support
  • The LM-2461W has added a DCI P3 mode in addition to the Rec 709, SMPTE C, EBU, and Native Wide Gamut modes found on previous models.  
• Level B SMPTE 425M Support
  • Coming as a firmware update later this year to the LM-2461W will be Level B 3Gbps SDI support in addition to the already supported Level A image mapping 3Gbps SDI. 
• Remote Alarm Monitoring 
  • Also coming as a firmware update later this year to the LM-2461W will be a new Remote Alarm Monitoring software option. Stay tuned for details on this exciting new capability.
• Extraordinary Color Accuracy
  • At FSI we have long been advocates of the concept that a monitor's calibration can only be as good as the measuring device used. In light of this FSI has transitioned to the Minolta CS-2000 Spectroradiometer as our primary reference instrument allowing us to further dial in LUT and alignment tolerances for our most accurate monitor to date.  
• Shared panel technology with LM-2460W monitors
  • By utilizing the same fundamental panel technology found in all LM-2460W monitors these units can be precisely matched  and will exhibit the same basic viewing characteristics allowing these monitors to be used side by side at facilities that already are heavily invested in LM-2460Ws.

The LM-2461W will start shipping on Wednesday of this week (3/23) and may now be ordered from www.ShopFSI.com . If you are attending NAB this year make sure to stop by our our booth, SL10010, to check out this extraordinary new monitor. 

• Units will ship from FSI to their new owners on or around April 25th
  • This allows sufficient time for the units to return to FSI from the NAB show and to be inspected, cleaned, and repacked. 
•  Orders are being accepted starting today at www.ShopFSI.com 
  • Do not wait until the start of NAB to get your NAB B-Stock orders in! Last year most models of NAB B-Stock were sold out several weeks before the start of the show.
• Maximum of 2 per model per company, total maximum of 6 units per customer 
  • Example: you may purchase 2 x 7", 2 x 17", and 2 x 24", but not 6 x 24"
• All NAB B-Stock Units come with the same full 2 year warranty provided with new equipment
• Quantities are very limited. Remaining Stock Status for all NAB B-Stock units will be shown on their respective product pages.
  • FSI will not hold/reserve units without full payment. Your card will be charged when you place your order

• Audio Phase Metering & Updated Audio Level Meters:
   
  • In addition to the new Audio Phase Metering feature the Audio Level Meters have been updated to include a more detailed scale and also to indicate whether any given Group of audio is present and simply mute (MUTE indication) or not being embedded at all (no indication).
     

• 3 New Scope Modes: 

  • In addition to the new Audio Phase Scope Mode two new video scope modes, YCbCr Overlay and RGB Overlay, have been added bringing the total number of scope modes available on FSI monitors to 12.

• Marker Profiles:
  • 3 Marker Profiles, similar to the Scopes and VU Meters profiles, are now available allowing users to instantly switch between 3 different user adjustable Marker configurations without entering the marker menu.
     

• Additional GPI Functions have been added to the GPI Menu, including Scopes & VU Meters profiles, Blue Only, Cross Hatch, H/V Delay, LUM Coloring, and Overscan.
• The Sub Window feature has been updated with the following enhancements:
  • Freezing and Unfreezing of leftmost image is now controlled by H POS rotary knob so that the image may be frozen/unfrozen easily without having to cycle out of the Sub Window Feature.
  • After freezing a source in the leftmost image you may now switch to any other input to compare this frozen image to the live video from another input. However, this only works if the two sources share the SAME resolution.
• The following two bug fixes have also been incorporated in 9.37:
  • Bug preventing Scopes from working on some monitors while sub window is active has been resolved.
  • Bug generating bogus value if the Diff Row Luminance Value in the 8 bit Measurement feature was negative has been resolved.
